Cationic starch is a type of starch that has been modified to carry a positive charge on its molecular structure. This modification is achieved by adding positively charged groups, such as quaternary ammonium or amino groups, to the starch molecule.
Properties
The resulting cationic starch has unique properties, such as improved water solubility, adhesion, and binding capacity, which make it useful in a variety of applications, including papermaking, textiles, and water treatment.
Applications
Food industry: Cationic starch is used in the food industry as a thickener, emulsifier, stabilizer, and fat replacer. It can improve the texture and stability of various food products such as sauces, dressings, and baked goods.
Paper industry: Cationic starch is widely used in the paper industry as a wet-end additive to increase paper strength, retention of fines, and drainage. It improves paper quality by enhancing fiber-to-fiber bonding and reducing porosity.
Other: Textile, mining, water treatment, adhesives, personal care products, etc.
